Kodi 18 - Green Screen while playing video - skybird1980 - 2018-03-03

Hi there, i get a green screen while playing mpeg4 video using dxva acceleration - also with pixel shaders.
if i activate software decoding it works.
here are some debug logs:
1. dxva (automatic mode) -  https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/KsSF8npxKH/
2. pixel shaders (force dxva acceleration off) - https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/WNHBJZ58TJ/
3. software decoding - https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/3YXCsdkScZ/

Maybe you can help.
VLC is working with all videos.

I will leave it to our dvxa experts but I wouldn’t be surprised if AMD drivers are the issue here as they have by far the worse reputation for not doing things right.

Heres a Log from VLC for one file.

 Firstly, no need to play few files in a single log. Play one file which reproduce the issue and provide a log.
Secondly, for each log describe both settings: Render method and Allow hardware acceleration.

Thanks

1,2 and 3 are with enabled dxva2 Accelaration.
Log 2 and 3 are only one File.
Disabling DXVA2 don't change anything.

If you want i can give you remote access via teamviewer if you want to test.

I'm avaible on irc chat between 16 and 22 am cet.
